Rather Be

I would rather be

Up on the other side of town

Talking la-la-la-loud

(With my music blaring out)

I would rather be

Dancing barefoot on the streets

Raindrops falling on my feet

Why don’t you take my heart from out of your hands

Loving ain’t loving if the both of us can’t

Don’t you believe it’s time we let it all go

You can pretend we’re forever but I don’t

Got me stopping at green lights, you tell me that I do too much

Too much

Feels like I’m suffocating

Wish I could be who I once was yeah

I would rather be

Up on the other side of town

Talking la-la-la-loud

With my music blaring out

I would rather be

Dancing barefoot on the streets

Raindrops falling on my feet

Living up inside my dreams

We’re not gonna find the broken pieces we’ve lost

I don’t wanna bang our heads together, don’t talk

I’m done with your circles babe I’m gettin out of here

Rumours of a good time, you’ll find me there

Got me stopping at green lights, you tell me that I do too much

Too much

Feels like I’m suffocating

Wish I could be who I once was yeah

I would rather be

Up on the other side of town

Talking la-la-la-loud

With my music blaring out

I would rather be

Dancing barefoot on the streets

Raindrops falling on my feet

Living up inside my dreams

You got me going crazy now

I’m going crazy

I’m tired of fading out

On the daily

You got me going crazy now

I’m going crazy

I would rather be

Yeah I’d just rather be

So why don’t you listen

Why won’t you let me

I wanted too much for you to give -

me what I’m craving

Can’t keep up darling

Ooh ‘cause baby

I would rather be

Up on the other side of town

Talking la-la-la-loud

With my music blaring out

I would rather be

Dancing barefoot on the streets

Raindrops falling on my feet

Living up inside my dreams

You got me going crazy now

I’m going crazy

I’m tired of fading out

On the daily

You got me going crazy now

I’m going crazy

I would rather be (I’d rather be)

Yeah I’d just rather be (I’d rather be oooh)

Why don’t you listen

Why won’t you let me

I wanted too much for you to give-

me what I’m craving

Can’t keep up darling

I needed to focus on myself
